  ANGEL

  I’m 18, going on Death . . . and this is the Age of Terror . . .

  After its bloody confrontation with the murderous paramilitaries of ‘Muldane’s Army’, the North Yorkshire community of Haven licks its wounds. Both Jim Reaper and Sandra Hinchliffe harbour the pain of having lost loved ones in the conflict. More people are flocking to the sanctuary. They bring new skills and the hopes of finding peace and security and a return to civilisation.

  But Reaper knows that just as decent people are coming together in ever-greater numbers and with more sophisticated technology, so too, inevitably, are the predators and the depraved. And so Reaper and Sandra venture further afield, seeking early intelligence of the threats that lie over the horizon while dealing with evil wherever they find it – and in the only way they know how.

  But Sandra is no longer an apprentice: the loss of her husband has turned her hard, efficient and ruthless. Across the isolated settlements of England a modern legend spreads. And it speaks of the Angel of Death.

  REDEMPTION

  After the apocalypse comes Armageddon . . .

  Jim Reaper and his small band of ‘enforcers’ have successfully defended the North Yorkshire settlement of Haven and it has become the hub of trade and cooperation between the dozens of peaceful settlements that comprise most of what’s left of northern England.

  But further north, Newcastle and its environs have become infested by a feral horde that must sooner or later turn its rapacious gaze towards Haven and the peaceful communities under its protection.

  And to the south is a regime called Redemption, rumoured to be the new seat of British government – with Prince Harry as its patron – and luring hundreds of survivors with the promise of a return to civilised order and normality, backed by a full battalion of regular soldiers.

  Reaper and his ruthless young protégée, Sandra, set off to learn about Redemption for themselves and are soon embroiled in a bloody power struggle that imperils the whole country.

  And then, with Reaper and Sandra far from Haven, the feral horde takes to the road.

  Coming soon – Craig Smith’s epic story of one man’s

  struggle for survival in Ancient Rome’s civil wars:

  THE HORSE CHANGER

  Messala Corvinus said it best of the opportunist Quintus Dellius: “he was the horse changer of our civil war”. In the course of a year, Dellius served first Dolabella, then Cassius, and finally Mark Antony . . .

  Seneca the Elder

  ROME 46 BC

  Dreaming of service to the great Gaius Julius Caesar, the young Tuscan knight, Quintus Dellius, secures the patronage of the youngest of his generals, the dissolute Cornelius Dolabella. Dellius distinguishes himself in Caesar’s Spanish war against Pompey, becomes a tribune of cavalry in Caesar’s army and looks forward to an assured and glittering career.

  But when his hero is assassinated, the Roman republic is plunged into chaos as both his heirs and enemies jostle for power. In the civil wars that follow, Dellius is soon caught up in a maelstrom of shifting allegiances and the young soldier will need to discover reserves of both tenacity and ruthlessness if he is to survive.

  As he journeys from the orgiastic salons of Rome’s Palatine Hill to the Palaces of Alexandria, the rocky fortresses of Judaea and the bloody field of Philippi, he manages to incur the enmity both of Egypt’s queen and Rome’s future emperor, but also to snare the affections of a beautiful and cunning young senator’s wife, Livia Drusilla.
